If you don't mind me asking, but where you do all work at?

I am currently unemployed and just work with my dad off and on, but I don't consider it a job because the pay is shit and barely gets me enough money to go buy a candy bar.

I read on here about how some of you have all these awesome upgrades to your cars and just am curious as to what your job is if you work. Thanks! :D

I work at this manufacturing place part time, 20 hours a week. Pay is $7.55 per hour but when I pay for insurance and buy gas and shit I barely can save anything for my car. Thats why I am dropping out of college cause its a waste of damn time and starting to work full time. This is my second and last semster, college sux. :mad:

what ever happend to being a copper.

One of my homies is a correctional officer working at the Folsom Prison in Cali. He works with lvl 4 inmates (basically lifer's and death row). However he traveled to the american side and bought a 01 Camaro SS. He put in a all the bolt-ons including borla exhaust system, and a super charger. He's runnin low 10's right now (bastard).

As for me I work for the County of Sacramento doing mainly accounting and fiscal services. The pay is good, but I got a 975/month apartment, a babygirl (who will be 1 yrs old tomorrow), a woman, and a 99 AV6 that my woman wants me to hook up in the process. Yeah go figure, my girl wants me to hook up her accord like I do with mine. She eventually wants to run with our crew and be the only female on the team.

discount tire, $9 hr. started a couple of weeks ago. i get 10-20% off of tires and wheels. its a fun place to work. dont know if this is universal with all discount tires, but there are 4 bays, so if you hear something other than "bay (1, 2, 3 or 4)" its code. for example, "bay 13" means hot chick in lobby

I'm in the Army making about 3k a month. After rent, wife, kid, etc.. there is a bit of a surplus of cash for car modifications.. something the wife despises me for! Bolt-ons are the easiest parts to come by that are within reason. It takes a bit of saving for most people to add on the custom turbo set-ups and engine internal modifcations and the such. I do all of my own mechanic work, so I save quite a bit on shop fees
